1.0 out of 5 stars Not unique, at least for non-Polish speakers, February 2, 1999
By A Customer
If you are looking for uniquely Polish ways of putting things or uniquely Polish proverbs, this isn't the book you want. The book is a collection of proverbs that translate into English, specifically with English equivalents. Some of them are simply the Polish translations of biblical proverbs and Latin tags; some others are Polish ways of expressing the standard proverbs but are translated as the English version of the proverb. I'm still looking for a book of uniquely Polish idiomatic phrases I ran across a while back; this isn't it.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book has very useful information and is well laid out., December 30, 1997
By A Customer
I brought it home to my family during the holidays and my polish grandparents loved it. Alot of the proverbs were ones they remember from when they were little.
